After losing to highly ranked North Carolina 3-1 over the weekend, the UMaine field hockey teams actually climbs a spot in the national poll, up to #19.

The NFHCA Coaches poll may have rewarded the Black Bears for the UNC game while UAlbany fell in the poll, from 17th down to 20th.

Maine is 6-2 with the two losses to #5 North Carolina and #9 BU.

Next on the schedule for the Bears - Saturday at Northeastern and Sunday at Harvard.
